Producing coconut sugar starts with harvesting nectar from the flower bud stalks of coconut trees;

➡️ Then the sap flows from the pieces into bamboo containers.

➡️ The collected sap is then transferred to a large pan and placed over medium heat to evaporate the moisture content of the sap.

➡️ As the water evaporates, it begins to transform into a thick gum syrup, and from this form, it can be further reduced to a crystalline, block, or soft paste form.

**Transporting the nectar from the farm to the manufacturer takes up to 3 hours (the nectar can only hold up to 2 hours before it stale/spoiled), and to preserve the nectar, they use mangosteen peel extract.
